NCT ID NCT07176975
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jul 08, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This early-phase study tests a new drug, BI 1831169, combined with an existing immunotherapy (nivolumab) in Japanese adults with advanced solid tumors that have spread or not responded to prior treatments. The main goal is to find a safe, tolerable dose. Up to 46 participants will receive the combination as an infusion for up to one year, with regular monitoring for side effects and tumor changes.

- Active substance
- BI 1831169 and nivolumab
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a new combination treatment for advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to other therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, small Phase 1 trial focused on safety and dosing, not on proving the treatment works. Many similar experimental combinations fail to show benefit.
